Me an INFJ

I totally love personality tests. I done one a few years back and for the life of me can't remember my results.
So with Vencora's link, I completed another one just to see what I may be. . .

Ta-dah, your personality type is INFJ!

Introverted (I) 82%

Extraverted (E) 18%

Intuitive (N) 68%

Sensing (S) 32%

Feeling (F) 80%

Thinking (T) 20%

Judging (J) 59%

Perceiving (P) 41%

Beneath the quiet exterior, INFJs hold deep convictions about the weightier matters of life. Those who are activists -- INFJs gravitate toward such a role -- are there for the cause, not for personal glory or political power.
NFJs are champions of the oppressed and downtrodden. They often are found in the wake of an emergency, rescuing those who are in acute distress. INFJs may fantasize about getting revenge on those who victimize the defenseless. The concept of 'poetic justice' is appealing to the INFJ.

INFJs have a knack for fluency in language and facility in communication. In addition, nonverbal sensitivity enables the INFJ to know and be known by others intimately.
Writing, counseling, public service and even politics are areas where INFJs frequently find their niche.
Usually self-expression comes more easily to INFJs on paper, as they tend to have strong writing skills. Since in addition they often possess a strong personal charisma, INFJs are generally well-suited to the "inspirational" professions such as teaching (especially in higher education) and religious leadership. Psychology and counseling are other obvious choices, but overall, INFJs can be exceptionally difficult to pigeonhole by their career paths.
